Welcome to Three Acres, Dixie!

A beautiful addition! 

We are super excited to announce that we have added to our herd! Please welcome Miss Dixie! Dixie was kindly donated to us by Miss Sophia Myers! Dixie was previously living here in Lincoln and was the companion and riding teacher for Sophia.  Sophia's hard work and Dixie's guidance helped her to become a great rider, and she is moving onto a bigger horse to continue perfecting her skills, and while it was very hard for her to let Dixie go, we are so happy that she chose us to provide Dixie with a new home and a new career! 



Prior to being owned and loved by Sophia and her family, Dixie was living at a horse rescue facility, after being removed from a neglectful environment. Dixie is 24 years old but looks much younger thanks to the love she was given by Wynmore farms and the Myers family.  While Dixie has that baby face, she has actually had two babies of her own!  Dixie is described as being very patient and kind. Since she has been with us she has been very curious. She is happy to greet us anytime we are outside, and I often catch her checking us out through the little window in the barn. Like most horses Dixie loves to eat! And is enjoying her grain, hay, grass, and a few treats here and there! Chance has lived with Dixie before while at Wynmore farms. He was very happy to see an old friend and was super happy to find out that she would be staying! Mona also appeared to be pretty happy to have another Mare to hang out with. Needless to say we are all already in love with her, and in just the few days that she has been here she has already added more joy to our environment. She has stepped into her therapist role like she has been doing it all her life.  We can’t say enough how grateful we are that Sophia chose us to share space with Miss Dixie! 


If you are interested in meeting Dixie or spending more time with her, please ask about our sponsorship opportunities!

Grief; It Comes In Waves

Image
Wow, what a month! I have to admit it's been somewhat of a whirlwind for many, including myself. I personally have experienced a range of emotions including excitement, sadness, hope, defeat, empowerment, joy, fear, gratitude, and surrender. In light of all that, and the increase in COVID cases and a new mask mandate, I felt it only appropriate to write a little about grief. I hope you find this helpful. Please feel free to leave feedback, reach out via email, or through the “Hay Keri” section on the website.  Grief comes in waves. Sometimes the grief comes in like a tropical storm and it lasts for days.  You feel the oncoming of it, at times you may feel irritable, overwhelmed, exhausted, hopeless, and have this ache in your tummy.  You may try to hide from it, run away and distract yourself from what you are feeling.  However hard you try though it has a way of making itself known.  The longer you deny what you are feeling the more intense it becomes.  Some people are unaware of

The Gift of Intuition

Image
As a child, I often had dreams that would come true and visited with some loved ones who had already passed over. My friends often asked me what I thought about certain situations in their lives, and very often I was able to accurately guide them with things to do, behaviors to avoid, and so on.  I had never thought much about this until my late teens when I learned more about what it meant to have psychic abilities. I was instantly drawn to learn more about this gift, including my own gifts and abilities.  In 2005 I began working with my mentor Virginia Thompson, who has since passed.  Virginia was a registered nurse, reverend, author, and psychic.  She hated the word psychic because of all the stereotypes attached to it.  For many, a softer and more recognizable word intuitive. We all have intuition, we just use it differently - some use it a lot and some don’t.  I worked with Virginia to fine-tune my own skills and abilities. This was not an easy task. Being able to work with energ

Lets Talk Mental Wellness and Mental Illness

  Lets Talk Mental Wellness and Mental Illness As a therapist and a person who lives this life finding a balance between my mental wellness and my mental illness, I have noticed that there is a significant amount of shame, guilt, irrational ownership, blame, and did I mention shame, surrounding a persons current state of overall mental wellness.  What I have seen people often fail to understand is that mental illness is really not a whole lot different than a physical illness and you never really here any one telling you to "just stop throwing up" when you have the flu, when your gall bladder has gone bad, or worse if you have stomach cancer.  That's the thing when it comes to depression and anxiety especially, people who love those who suffer from these illnesses often have the best of intentions when they recommend thinking about something else, going for a walk, just smile, or asking questions like "why can't you just be happy?"  For those of us who truly
